South Mountain Park Vacations from $427

Outstand view of the canyon.

The day of our stay we received a text stating that the rental we had booked was not available due to HVAC issues. They offered us a downgraded room which we accepted and were waiting for confirmation of the details for our amended stay. Mind you, this booking was for a 7 person family. We accepted a 2 bedroom with 2 queen, 1 king (2 full beds pushed together to make a “king”, left no room for cuddling, center of the bed dipped and separated, very uncomfortable), and a pull out couch. Half way through our 2 hr drive there we got another call from hotels.com who stated the rooms were not available and they were going to get us booked at another location. I asked about the other rooms that were offered by Home & House Vacations & they then confirmed we were set with a downgraded room & offered $100 hotels.com credit, that someone from HHV would contact us with entry codes 1 hr prior to check in. We called HHV 45 mins before check in, after driving 2 hour to PHX & was told the rooms weren’t available and that hotels.com was relocating us. Frustrated w/ HHV we called hotels.com and we’re finally able to get things corrected. A lot of avoidable stress could have been rectified with better communication between the two services. We were worried bout where our 7 person family would stay after traveling 2 hours, being told one thing then another multiple times. Overall, unneeded stress but a nice stay once we did arrive.

Great breakfast! West Sedona location better if you don’t like the crowds and traffic of downtown. Close to excellent hiking trails. Rooms a little tired and outdated but knowing that going in it is Southwest quaint and comfortable. Generous lobby refills for pool and regular towels and extra coffee without having to ask. We would stay here again. Home made burritos were on offer and delicious.
